DAO Drops is the public goods arm of dOrg, an OG services DAO that builds dapps and other web3 infrastructure. The aim of DAO Drops is to Drop open source tools for decentralized communities.

In 2023 we launched DAO Drops first iteration, a pilot supported by the Ethereum Foundation to empower Ethereum users to allocate ecosystem funds to underfunded projects. If you want to know more about how we built this first drop, visit https://daodrops.io/

We received a tremendous amount of positive feedback from the community, especially from groups that were interested in running their own rounds. As a result, we released our second drop: PairDrop. PairDrop is a reusable primitive that allows communities to intelligently allocate funds. It is designed to avoid common pitfalls of funding mechanisms like cognitive overload and favoritism, while making the process fun and painless.

Our upcoming public goods tools drops include a privacy-preserving DAO, a bot for public goods projects to answer common questions, assist with DAO onboarding, and help write grants based on past applications, and a forkable version of dOrg Passport to manage builder reputation and Snapshot voting.

The value we aim to add to the public goods ecosystem includes creating reusable, useful and intelligent tools, fostering innovation and community empowerment, and continuously developing scalable and transparent mechanisms for decentralized communities.

What public goods tools would you like to see DAO Drops develop next? Share your ideas with us at daodrops@dorg.tech, DM us on Twitter, or message us in the Octant forum. We'd love to hear from you!
